This brief presents trends in judicial budgets. Courts account for less than 2 percent of total government expenditure on average, with significant portions dedicated to fixed costs such as salaries, thereby limiting investments in technological advancements essential for improving judicial efficiency. This brief identifies three major trends in judicial budgeting reforms: increasing autonomy for the judiciary in budget management, accountability for budget execution at the court level, and a shift towards performance based budgeting models. These reforms aim to bolster the operational efficiency and public perception of the judiciary, ultimately linking adequate judicial funding to enhanced social and economic outcomes. The findings emphasize the necessity for judicial leaders to continuously advocate for resources by demonstrating the judiciary\u2019s integral role in maintaining law and order, promoting democracy, and fostering societal stability.","geographic_units":[{"name":"World","code":"WLD","type":"Region"}],"language":[{"name":"English","code":"EN"}],"data_statement":"All data sources are publicly available and included in the reproducibility package","repository_uri":[{"name":"Reproducible Research Repository (World Bank)","uri":"https:\/\/reproducibility.worldbank.org"}],"reproduction_instructions":"To reproduce the analysis provided in this package, new users need to do the change the path in the main do file and run the code.
